Objective To study the effects neuromuscular electrotherapy and kinesitherapy on brachial plexus palsy. Methods 20 patients with brachial plexus palsy accepted neuromuscular electrical stimulation on involved muscles, and were followed up for 18～58 months. Other 17 patients accepted neurolysis alone were as control. Results The function of shoulder and elbow in electric stimulation group was significantly superior to that of control (P<0.01). Conclusion Neuromuscular electrotherapy combined with kinestherapy is effective on the brachial plexus palsy.

Objective:To analyze the application effect of condition scale in nursing management of children bronchial asthma in acute attack stage.Methods:A total of 136 children with acute attack of bronchial asthma admitted to Shanxi Children's Hospital from January 2020 to December 2021 were selected by convenience sampling method, and randomly divided into observation group and control group according to random number table method, 68 cases in each group. Children in the observation group received graded nursing intervention based on disease scale, while children in the control group received routine nursing intervention. The first second forced expiratory volume (FEV 1), forced vital capacity (FVC), ratio of FEV l/FVC, peak expiratory flow rate (PEF), medical intervention frequency, the number of ICU transfer and length of stay were compared between the two groups. Results:The results of repeated measurement ANOVA showed that there were intergroup, time and interaction effects on the levels of FEV 1, FVC, FEV 1/FVC and PEF in the two groups, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The frequency of medical intervention in observation group was less than that in control group, and the length of hospitalization was shorter, with statistical significance ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in ICU patients transferred between the two groups ( P>0.05) . Conclusions:Application of Condition Scale in nursing management of children with acute attack of bronchial asthma can improve the lung function of children with acute attack bronchial asthma more effectively, reduce the frequency of medical intervention, shorten the length of hospital stay, and significantly improve the nursing effect.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the genetic basis of a child with congenital heart disease (CHD). METHODS: Clinical examination of the child was carried out. Chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) and quantitative PCR were carried out to detect copy number variations. RESULTS: The major features of the child included CHD (ventricular septal defect, severe pulmonary hypertension, tricuspid regurgitation, patent ductus arteriosus, and patent foramen ovale), severe pneumonia and liver failure. A de novo 3.2 Mb deletion encompassing 25 genes in 13q34 and a paternal 2.2 Mb duplication in 19p13.3 were revealed by CMA and qPCR. CONCLUSION The 13q34 region probably contains susceptibility genes for CHD.
